How Would You Like This Budgie In Your Aviary.

The bird's face is out of proprtion to it's body in the first photo, the second photo is much better. I agree with Taz the face is made so much bigger by the depth of mask. It does look like a fairly fit bird and it's body feather's sit tight. I would love to own it.

 

This bird surpasses the standard in regards to depth of mask, does that mean it would get penalised?

Every country has its own Standard .... evidently this is an example of the UK Standard.

Thanks Gb he is stunning, just love him, those other pics are much better

 

this isnt the prettiest of the ones ive seen but hes length and mask are great very thin in head compared to most them im guessing its the feather extensions hee hee

lets face it if no one likes this type of bird then even if the people with dollors bring the look in then only they will breed it

someone made us sound like sheep (cant remember who ) but i for one know i will be breeding the look i want to the standard i want

sure ill probably not win top awards

but in saying that to me the award will be sitting in my shed enjoying birds i breed with my own prefer;ed look

of course if everyone trys to follow believing its the only way to win than everyone will most likely have to have the same quality in standard but if everyone stays true to what look they believe they love and not breed just to impress others then not only will the hobby stay alive but it will stay enjoyable

what i like is all different types of birds win at different levels regardless of the so call wanted look

this keeps it real for everyone i feel

if by chance these birds get transformed into something that represents a fragile(u know them fluffy things from fragile rock the kids show ?)

then i believe the whole showing breeding thing will deteriorate due to exess costs to have the required needs these longer feathered birds would require and keeping them alive will be too hard to manage for the average jo blow and his shed/breeding room

my opinion when you look at all the things the English breeders use

you truly do need money to get these things

An amazing looking budgie bred by Les Martin from the UK. Won best in show 2010 B.S. Club show. Les Martin won it again this year with a blue.

 

 

 

He has shoulder and how can you tell he doesn't have back scull Renee when you can't see that area anyway. I think he is magnificent. I would be proud to breed a bird like that but then at the same time the directional feather is almost going to far.

This is why you have such good quality birds splat,because you can appreciate the quality of this bird and obviously apply that talent to your own stock.I cannot believe all the negatives regarding this bird,the bird won a major award in the UK & that is not easy to do.Give me an aviary full of them any day,well done Les Martin keep them coming hopefully one day imports into Australia will start up again and i can contact you for some relatives of this ripper example of an exhibition budgerigar.

From what I hear, this style of bird is already being bred in Victoria ?

 

 

 

 

PS I am not saying I dont like this bird. Quite frankly ANY BIRD that had this kind of feather and was by some miracle in my aviary..........I would be stoked
